Manager system 110 can be configured to process image data representations of such error screens displayed on a display of administrator client computer device 120. Manager system 110 can provide one or more output in response to a processing of an error screen.

Manager system 110 can run various processes, including preparation and maintenance process, natural language processing, an NLP process 113, recognition process 114, artificial intelligence (AI) action selection process 115, and machine learning process 116.

Data repository 112 can store various data. In error history area 2121 data repository 112 can store data on previously registered error screens. Error history area 2121 can store data representing past registered error screens as well as data on administrator activity events associated to the error screens. Administrator activity events data can define context data associated to error screens. Such context data can facilitate recognition of errors associated to error screens. In area 2122, data repository 112 can store one or more decision data structure. A stored decision data structure can include, e.g. a knowledgebase that maps identifiers for error classifications to decisions associated to such identifiers.

Patch repository 2124 of data repository 112 can store a library of software patches that are available for use in improving the performance of one or more resource of resources 2602A-2602Z. A software patch, as set forth herein, can include a piece of software designed to update the software program and/or supporting data to fix or improve the performance of a program and/or data of one or more resource of resources 2602 a-2602 z. As noted, with the use of manager system 110, one or more output can be provided in response to a recognition process.

Manager system 110 can run preparation and maintenance process 111 to automatically update data records of areas 2121, 2122, 2123, and 2124 of data repository 112. Collected data of areas 2121, 2122, 2123, and 2124 can support processes run by manager system 110.

Manager system 110 can run NLP process 113 to process data for preparation of records that are stored in data repository 112 and for other purposes. Manager system 110 can run a Natural Language Processing (NLP) process 113 for determining one or more NLP output parameter of a message. NLP process 113 can include one or more of a topic classification process that determines topics of messages and output one or more topic NLP output parameter, a sentiment analysis process which determines sentiment parameter for a message, e.g. polar sentiment NLP output parameters, “negative,” “positive,” and/or non-polar NLP output sentiment parameters, e.g. “anger,” “disgust,” “fear,” “joy,” and/or “sadness” or other classification process for output of one or more other NLP output parameters e.g. one of more “social tendency” NLP output parameter or one or more “writing style” NLP output parameter.

By running of NLP process 113 manager system 110 can perform a number of processes including one or more of (a) topic classification and output of one or more topic NLP output parameter for a received message (b) sentiment classification and output of one or more sentiment NLP output parameter for a received message or (c) other NLP classifications and output of one or more other NLP output parameter for the received message.

Topic analysis for topic classification and output of NLP output parameters can include topic segmentation to identify several topics within a message. Topic analysis can apply a variety of technologies e.g. one or more of Hidden Markov model (HMM), artificial chains, passage similarities using word co-occurrence, topic modeling, or clustering. Sentiment analysis for sentiment classification and output of one or more sentiment NLP parameter can determine the attitude of a speaker or a writer with respect to some topic or the overall contextual polarity of a document. The attitude may be the author's judgment or evaluation, affective state (the emotional state of the author when writing), or the intended emotional communication (emotional effect the author wishes to have on the reader). In one embodiment sentiment analysis can classify the polarity of a given text at the document, sentence, or feature/aspect level—whether the expressed opinion in a document, a sentence or an entity feature/aspect is positive, negative, or neutral. Advanced sentiment classification can classify beyond a polarity of a given text. Advanced sentiment classification can classify emotional states as sentiment classifications. Sentiment classifications can include the classification of “anger,” “disgust,” “fear,” “joy,” and “sadness.”

Manager system 110 can run recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to and resulting in display of a current error screen. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can include manager system 110 examining data representing an error screen and/or context data of an error screen. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 recognizing a current error screen as a previously registered error screen and/or manager system 110 recognizing context data of an error screen as previously registered context data.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can recognize a current error screen as a previously registered error screen based on one or more matching criterion being satisfied. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can recognize context data of an error screen as a previously registered error screen context data based on one or more matching criterion being satisfied. In one embodiment, a matching criterion can be satisfied when there is an identical match between a current error screen and a previously registered error screen. In one embodiment, a matching criterion can be satisfied when there is other than an identical match.

In one embodiment, manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to examine data representing error screen and/or context data of an error screen can include manager system 110 employing pattern recognition processing using one or more of e.g. feature extraction algorithms, classification algorithms, and/or clustering algorithms.

In one embodiment, manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to recognize an error screen as a previously registered error screen can include performing of digital image processing for determining that a matching criterion has been satisfied. Digital image processing can include, e.g., filtering, edge detection, shape classification and/or optical character recognition (OCR). Manager system 110 running recognition process can include, in one embodiment, activation of an NLP process 113 to identify a match between the current error screen and a previously registered error screen based on one or more output NLP parameters resulting from an NLP processing of a prior-registered error screen as compared to a current error screen. An NLP processing for facilitating performance of recognition process 114 can include use of topic based NLP process, wherein topics of a current error screen is compared to topic parameters of prior registered error screens for performance of recognition processing and matching.

At various stages of operation, manager system 110 can run a heuristic process e.g. for performing matching of current error screen to a previously registered error screen. In one embodiment, running of heuristic process can include generating a hash of image data defining a current error screen and comparing that generated hash to hashes of image data representing registered. In some embodiments, manager system 110 running recognition process can include running of heuristic process e.g. for comparing of a current error screen to a previously registered error screen.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 matching a current error screen as a previously registered error screen using one or more process set forth herein. According to one of more matching criterion, the matching can require a non-identical match or in some embodiment an identical match.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 matching context data of an error screen as previously registered context data. According to one of more matching criterion, the matching can require a non-identical match or in some embodiment an identical match. The context data can include administrator activity event context data associated to the event. The context event can be time window related to the error screen. For example, if an error screen is displayed at time T1, a time window of interest may be defined by the time window T0 through T2 where T0 is a time before time T1 and T2 is a time after T1. For examination of context data of an error screen manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can employ pattern recognition processing using one or more of e.g. feature extraction algorithms, classification algorithms, and/or clustering algorithms.

Manager system 110 running artificial intelligence (AI) action selection process 115 can select one or more action based on a classification of a current error screen as having a certain error classification. In one embodiment, manager system 110 running AI action selection process 115 can include manager system 110 using a decision data structure of decision data structure area 2122. Manager system 110 running AI action selection process 115 can include manager system 110 using decision data structure that cognitively maps error classifier identifiers. One or more actions that are specified in such a decision data structure can include, e.g. actions to install a patch on a particular software program running on one or more resource of resources 2602A-2602Z. One or more action can also include activation of a logging profile for logging data of one or more resource of resources 2602A-2602Z. An action specified in a decision data structure can also include other actions, e.g. system resets, system reboots, reconfigurations, and the like. Actions can further include notifications, e.g. to an enterprise administrator associated to administrator client computer device 120 and/or to a support administrator associated to service support administrator client computer device 170.

Manager system 110 running machine learning process 116 can include application of training data to update actions specified in a decision data structure for use in running AI action selection process 115. The training can include training of a predictive model that predicts a best set of actions for responding to a current error screen. Training data can include, e.g. a set of three-tuples, each three-tuple comprising for instance the values (a_(i),s_(i),t_(i)) where a_(i) is an action instance, s_(i) is a success level associated to the action instance, and t_(i) is a time associated to an action instance.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating coordination of processes that can be performed by manager system 110 of FIG. 1, in accordance with one or more embodiments set forth herein.

At block 210, manager system 110 can run preparation and maintenance process 111 to populate prepare and maintain various data of data repository 112 including data of areas 2121-2124 of data repository 112. Manager system 110 can run preparation and maintenance process 111 iteratively until process 111 is terminated at block 212.

At block 220, manager system 110 can run recognition process 114 to determine error classifications for errors associated to error screens. For support of running of recognition process 114 iteratively, manager system 110 can be running e g NLP process 113, and A.I. action selection process 115 iteratively. Manager system 110 can run recognition process 114 until recognition process 114 is terminated at block 222. Manager system 110 can run preparation and maintenance process 111 and recognition process 114 concurrently and can run each of process 111 and process 114 iteratively NLP process 113 can be run e.g. to subject frames of image data to NLP processing to determine topic parameters associates to frames of image data for providing context data records for storage into error history area 2121.

A method 300 for performance by manager system 110 is illustrated with reference to FIG. 3. At block 310, manager system 110 can perform obtaining iteratively captured frames of image data representing a user interface screen, wherein one or more of the frames of image data represents an error screen indicating an error condition of one or more resource of a plurality of resources of a services system. At block 320, manager system 110 can perform recognition processing using image data of the captured frames of image data to determine an error classifier associated to the error screen indicating an error condition of one or more resource of a plurality of resources of a services system, wherein the performing recognition processing includes using historical data of a data repository, the historical data including data of past errors of the services system. At block 330 manager system can perform determining one or more action based on the error classifier, wherein the determining includes using a decision data structure that cognitively maps, for first through Nth error classifiers, an error classifier to at least one action associated to the error classifier. At block 340 manager system 110 can perform the one or more action in response to the determining, wherein the one or more action is an action for correction of the error condition indicated by the error screen indicating an error condition of one or more resource of a plurality of resources of a services system.

A specific example of method 300 is set forth in reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4, illustrating a specific example of method 300 from the perspective of manager system 110 having an associated data repository 112, services system 160, administrator client computer device 120, camera 130, and service support administrator client computer device 170.

At block 1601 services system 160 can send error data to administrator client computer device 120 for receipt by administrator client computer device 120 at block 1201. During the performance of such sending an administrator using administrator client computer device 120 can be performing an operation with respect to one or more resource of resources 2602A-2602Z of services system 160. In response to receipt of the error data at block 1201, administrator client computer device 120 can display on a display thereof an error screen that indicates an error condition of the one or more resource.

An exemplary administrator user interface 500 for display on a display of administrator client computer device 120, is shown in FIG. 5A. Administrator user interface 500 defines a user interface screen. Administrator user interface 500 can include an error history area 510 that defines the displayed user interface 500 as an error screen. In error history area 510, there can be displayed content that indicates an error. The content can include e.g. an error message. The error message can include e.g. text or describing a condition respecting e.g. an application of a resource of resources 2602A-2602Z.

In one embodiment, an error screen having an error message can be a user friendly error screen that provides text based information respecting a detected problem. In another embodiment, an error screen need not contain the user friendly text based message, but rather may include, e.g. merely an abnormal color, distortion, or something unexpected.

Error screens can be generated by resources of resources 2602A-2602Z including by applications running on one or more computing node. Error screen types can include for example: (a) a browser screen error screen (e.g. as depicted in FIG. 5B), including an error screen that directs to a 404 page; (b) an error dialog error screen (e.g. as depicted in FIG. 5C) that specifies a dialog of errors; (c) a screen glitch error screen e.g. as depicted in FIG. 5D; (d) a component positioning error screen as depicted in FIG. 5E wherein a screen component is rendered at an incorrect location (in FIG. 5E the search interface is configured to be centered but instead is displayed in a lower right portion of administrator user interface 500); (e) functional error screen also as depicted in FIG. 5E characterized by improper functioning of an application (a search engine search for “apples” returns “oranges”).

At block 1202, administrator client computer device 120 can send to manager system 110 for receipt at block 1101 configuration selection data and screenshot data. Referring to administrator user interface 500, an administrator can be aware of a problem with respect to one or more resource of resources 2602A-2602Z and accordingly may use area 520 to report the problem. For example, an administrator may be aware of a problem based on the content of an error message depicted in area 510.

An administrator user can use area 524 to enter a text based description of an error associated to an error screen and may activate reporting using area 520 with button 526. Manager system 110 in response to the report activation can associate a ticket number to the reported error associated to an error screen. Manger system 110 in response to an error being reported can activate sending of image data provided by iteratively captured of screenshots of administrator user interface 500. The image data can include a succession of screen shot frames at least one of which can represent an error screen. Frames of the succession of screenshot frames can be taken at times earlier than a time at which an administrator user reports a problem. For example, in one embodiment manager system 110 can always be buffering a succession of screen shot frames, and then, when there is a problem reporting activation by an administrator user, a succession of frames at block 1202 can be sent to manager system.

The succession of frames can include frames captured within a time window of the error reporting activation. The time window can include times earlier than an error reporting activation time. In one example the time window T0-T2, where T1 is the error reporting activation time, T0 is earlier than T1 and is a time of the first frame of the succession of frames, and T2 is later than or equal to T1 and is the time of the last frame of the succession of frames. The iteratively captured image data provided by screenshot data on receipt by manager system 110 at block 1103 can be sent by manager system 110 at block 1122 for receipt and storage by data repository 112 at block 1122. Such stored image data can be stored e.g. error history area 2121 as context indicating a context of an error screen.

The iteratively captured screen shots with configuration selection data, e.g. of selection data to select a reported problem can be sent at block 1202 for receipt by manager system 110 at block 1101. In one embodiment, screenshot data can be passively received by manager system 110 at block 1101 without a problem reporting being activated by an administrator user. In such an embodiment, manager system 110 can passively process received screenshot data in the background without an administrator user performing reporting using administrator user interface 500.

In another aspect, image data representing an error screen and other user interface screens can be captured using an external image capture device, i.e. a camera 130. As depicted in FIG. 1, camera 130 can include a video formatter process 2301 for formatting captured image data into streaming video format. Camera 130 at block 1301 can send streaming video data to manager system 110 for receipt by manager system 110 at block 1103. Responsively, to receipt of the video data, manager system 110 at block 1104 can send received video data to data repository 112 for receipt and storage by data repository 112 at block 1122. Such stored image data can be stored e.g. error history area 2121 as context indicating a context of an error screen.

In one embodiment, manager system 110 can subject iteratively captured frame image data received at block 1101 and/or 1103 to further processing to enhance data representing error screens and user interface screens absent of error screen areas and to provide context data associated to error screen. For example, manager system 110 can subject timestamped frames of the successive image data frame screen shot frames and/or video frames to e.g. OCR processing to transform image data representations of text into machine readable text and then can further subject OCR processed frames to further processing e.g. by NLP process 113 to return topic classifications for each frame. Manager system 110 can append the provided context data to the iteratively captured frames and can store the context data with the image data into error history area 2121 of data repository 112. Data stored in error history area 2121 can be time stamped to facilitate time window processing. Context data associated to an error screen can include data other than data representing an error screen, e.g. can include data of or provided using image data frames representing user interface screens captured prior to time of a display of an error screen. Context data associated to an error screen can include administrator activity event context data that indicates activity events of an administrator used within a time window associated to an error screen.

Recognizing at block 1105 can include activation of recognition process 114 as set forth herein to classify an error associated to an error screen. Recognizing can include iterative queries of data repository 112 as depicted by query receive and respond block 1123 performed by data repository 112.

Recognizing at block 1105 to classify a current error associated to a current error screen can include examining of one or more of (a) error screen data representing an error screen or (b) context data associated to the error screen. Error screen data representing an error screen can include or be obtained using image data frames representing an error screen. Context data of an error screen can include or be obtained using image data frames representing user interface screens captured within a time window associated to an error screen. Such user interface screens can be absent of an error screen area e.g. can user interface screens indicating administrator user activity within a time window associated to an error screen, e.g. preceding display of an error screen.

Manager system 110 can run recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to and resulting in display of a current error screen. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can include manager system 110 examining data representing an error screen and/or context data of an error screen. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 determining that a current error screen matches a previously registered error screen and/or manager system 110 determining that context data of a current error screen matches previously registered context data.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can recognize a current error screen as a previously registered error screen based on one or more matching criterion being satisfied. Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can recognize context data of an error screen as a previously registered error screen context data based on one or more matching criterion being satisfied. In one embodiment, a matching criterion can be satisfied when there is an identical match between a current error screen and a previously registered error screen. In one embodiment, a matching criterion can be satisfied when there is other than an identical match.

In one embodiment, manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to examine data representing error screen and/or context data of an error screen can include manager system 110 employing pattern recognition processing using one or more of e.g. feature extraction algorithms, classification algorithms, and/or clustering algorithms.

In one embodiment, manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to recognize an error screen as a previously registered error screen can include performing of digital image processing for determining that a matching criterion has been satisfied. Digital image processing can include, e.g., filtering, edge detection, shape classification and/or optical character recognition (OCR). Manager system 110 running recognition process can include, in one embodiment, activation of an NLP process 113 to identify a match between the current error screen and a previously registered error screen based on one or more output NLP parameters resulting from an NLP processing of a prior-registered error screen as compared to a current error screen. An NLP processing for facilitating performance of recognition process 114 can include use of topic based NLP process, wherein topics of a current error screen is compared to topic parameters of prior registered error screens for performance of recognition processing and matching.

At various stages of operation, manager system 110 can run a heuristic process e.g. for performing matching of current error screen to a previously registered error screen. In one embodiment, running of heuristic process can include generating a hash of image data defining a current error screen and comparing that generated hash to hashes of image data representing registered. In some embodiments, manager system 110 running recognition process can include running of heuristic process e.g. for comparing of a current error screen to a previously registered error screen.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 recognizing a current error screen as a previously registered error screen using one or more process set forth herein.

Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 to determine a classification of an error associated to an error screen can include manager system 110 recognizing context data of an error screen as previously registered context data. The context data can include administrator activity event context data associated to the event. The context event can be time window related to the error screen. For example, if an error screen is displayed at time T1, a time window of interest may be defined by the time window T0 through T2 where T0 is a time before time T1 and T2 is a time after T1. For examination of context data manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can employ pattern recognition processing using one or more of e.g. feature extraction algorithms, classification algorithms, and/or clustering algorithms.

Recognizing at block 1105 to classify a current error associated to a current error screen can include examining of one or more of (a) error screen data or (b) context data associated to the error screen data. Examining according to (a) can include determining that a current error screen matches a prior registered error screen according to a matching criterion wherein the current error screen and a prior error screen need not be identical. Examining according to (b) can include determining that an error associated to a current error screen matches a prior registered context data for the error according to a matching criterion wherein context data of the current error and the prior registered context data need not be identical.

Manager system 110 can employ various processes for determining that there is a match between a current error screen and a prior registered error screen. In one embodiment, manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can include performing of digital image processing for determining that a matching condition has occurred. Digital image processing can include, e.g., filtering, edge detection, and/or optical character recognition (OCR). Manager system 110 running recognition process 114 can include, in one embodiment, use of NLP parameters returned by activation of an NLP process 113 to identify a match between the current error screen and a previously registered error screen based on one or more output NLP parameters resulting from an NLP processing of a prior-registered error screen as compared to a current error screen. An NLP processing for facilitating performance of recognition process 114 can include use of topic based NLP process, wherein topics of a current error screen is compared to topic parameters of prior registered error screens for performance of recognition processing and matching. At various stages of operation, manager system 110 can run a heuristic process e.g. for performing matching of current error screen to a previously registered error screen. In one embodiment, running of heuristic process can include generating a hash of image data defining a current error screen and comparing that generated hash to hashes of image data representing registered. In some embodiments, manager system 110 running recognition process can include running of heuristic process e.g. for comparing of a current error screen to a previously registered error screen.

In some embodiments, for classifying an error associated to an error screen, manager system 110 can examine context data associated to an error screen. Error screen data stored in error history area 2121 of data repository 112 can include data representing an error screen and context data associated to an error screen. The context data can include e.g. administrator activity event context data associated to an error screen. The context data can include administrator activity event data associated to times within a time window related to the error screen. For example, if an error screen is displayed at time T1, a time window of interest associated to the error screen may be defined by the time window T0 through T2 where T0 is a time before time T1 and T2 is a time equal to or after T1. Data stored in error history area 2121 can be time stamped to facilitate time window processing. Context data associated to an error screen can include data other than data representing an error screen, e.g. can include data of or provided using image data frames captured prior to a time of a display of an error screen.

Context data subject to examining for classifying an error associated to an error screen can include data indicating administrator activity events within a time window associated to an error screen. Embodiment herein recognize that errors with services system resources such as resources 2602-2602Z can be classified as common where the error have common administrator activity events between the errors. Accordingly, for classifying an error associated to an error screen manager system 110 can examine administrator activity event context data to determine that there is a match between context data of a current error screen and prior registered context data. Such context data can be stored in error history area 2121 of data repository 112 by processes set forth herein and can include iterative timestamped frame image data, OCR output data, and/or NLP parameter data.

To illustrate error screen context data based error classification according one embodiment, manager system 110 can perform the following at block 1105: (i) iteratively captured frames received at block 1101 and/or 1103 can be examined as a set of frames comprising 1000 frames within the described time window T0 to T2 where an error screen is displayed at time T1: (ii) manager system 110 can recognize that in frame 9 the administrator user visited their favorites; (iii) manager system 110 can recognize that in frame 323 the user toggled a setting; (iv) manager system 110 can recognize that in frame 423 the user performed a search; (v) manager system 110 can recognize that beginning in frame 557 error screen ES008 was displayed.

Based on the administrator activity events, manager system 110 can search past error history area 2121 for past registered error context data matching the current error context data characterized by a sequence of administrator activity events comprising the events: (a) visiting favorites; (b) toggling setting; and (c) performing a search. In some embodiment, manager system 110 can filter results to exclude results where the error screen ES008 is not subsequently displayed on a display of administrator client computer device 120.

Manager system 110 can examine error history area 2121 and can identify prior registered context data wherein at frame 27 an administrator user visited a favorite, at frame 90 toggled settings and at frame 192 performed a search. Manager system 110 can determine that the prior registered error screen context data matches the current error screen context data based on the administrator activity event sequence (a) (b) and (c) being in common between the prior registered error screen context data and the current error screen context data.

Matching determinations can be qualified by a confidence level exceeding a threshold which confidence level can be based e.g. on the frame count variance between the prior registered error screen context data and the current error screen context data. Manager system 110 based on a determining that a current error screen context data matches prior error screen context data can assign an error classifier to the current error having an associated error screen.

Manager system 110 at block 1106 can determine whether a match has been identified between current error data and a previously registered error data, e.g. between a current error screen and/or context data and a prior registered error screen and/or error screen context data. Manager system 110 based on a match not being detected, can proceed to block 1107 to provide one or more output. The one or more output can be a new error type notification sent by manager system 110 at block 1107 for receipt by service support administrator client computer device 170 at block 1701. Based on the receipt of the new error type notification at block 1701, an administrator associated to service support administrator client computer device 170, an administrator user can use a support administrator user interface 600 as is depicted in FIG. 6 to specify data to initialize a new error classification for the new error specified in the notification received at block 1701, as well as an initial set of actions associated to the new error classification. Manager system 110 to register the new error as a registered error can assign a new error classifier identifier to the new error having error data stored in error history area 2121 (e.g. data representing an error screen and error screen context data) for which no prior matching error data was found. A registered error can have a registered error screen and registered context data stored in error history area 2121. Using error area 610 a support administrator using support administrator user interface 600 can observe a re-presentment of the current error screen in area 620 and/or context data associated to the error screen and using dropdown menu at 630 can specify one or more patch for association with the new error type. A support administrator user can specify one or more logging profile associated to the new error type using area 632 and using the dropdown menu at 632 a support administrator user can specify one or more other action associated to the new error classification.

Based on a matching being performed at block 1106 so that an error classifier is determined for an error, manager system 110 can proceed to block 1108 to perform action selection. System 100 can be configured so that action selection at block 1108 can also be performed in response to a support administrator user initializing a new error classification and actions at block 1702 using support administrator user interface 600. Manager system 110 can perform action selection at block 1108 using a decision data structure as set forth in Table A.

TABLE A ERROR PATCH LOGGING PROFILE OTHER ACTION E001 P007; P009 L004 A002 E002 P002 L003; L006 A004 E003 — L009; L007 — E004 P003; P001; P006 L003 A002, A008 □ □ □ □ Table A depicts a cognitive mapping decision data structure that cognitively maps error classifications, e.g. error classifications identified by the identifiers E001, E002, E003, E004 to actions associated to the error classification. Various types of actions can be specified in the decision data structure including patch actions having identifiers in the form P00*, logging profile action identifiers having the form L00*, and other action identifiers having the form A00*. Referring to the decision data structure of Table A, manager system 110 on determining that a current error screen having an associated error classification classified by the classifier E003 and can return a decision to initiate patch P007 and logging profiles L009 and L007.

In the described example hereinabove wherein manager system 110 determines that a current error context data matches prior registered error context data based on the administrator activity event sequence (a), (b) and (c) being common between the error context data, manager system 110 can determine that the current error is the classified as error classification E002 that is specified in Table A. Manager system 110 can accordingly return the decision for action P002 to install a certain patch to correct the condition indicated by the error screen associated to an error. Manager system 110 can accordingly further return the decision for actions to activate the logging profiles L003, and L006 which are logging profiles to activate logging for “favorites” and logging for “search feature” respectively. Manager system 110 can accordingly also return the action A004 to send a text based message specifying that the administrator user re-perform the activity events (the favorites and search activities) preceding the error screen with logging now activated.

Other actions specified in the other actions column of the decision data structure of Table A can include e.g. a restart of an application of a resource of one or more resources 2602A-2602Z such as a web based application, or a restart of a microservice.

Manager system 110 at block 1109 can provide one or more output in response to the action selection by manager system 110 at block 1108. The one or more output at block 1109 can include manager system 110 sending text based action selection data and/or profiling questions for receipt by administrator client computer device 120 at block 1203. On receipt of action selection data at block 1203, administrator client computer device 120 can display in area 540 of administrator user interface 500 various data. For example, at 541 of area 540 administrator user interface 500 can display textual data describing aspects of a selected one or more patch selected at block 1108. Area 542 indicators for various patches can be displayed highlighting one or more patch selected by the action selection process at block 1108. Using area 544 an administrator user can specify an address, e.g. URL for the selected patch. In response to receipt of the action selection data at block 1203 there can also be displayed within area 540 of administrator user interface 500, a text based description of a selected logging profile selected by the performing of action selection at block 1108. In area 552 there can be displayed various icons for menu selection of a logging profile. With the selected logging profile, selected by the action selection at block 1108 being highlighted. Using area 554, and administrator user can designate an address, e.g. URL for performance of the logging profile activation. Area 540 depicts a guided automated selection in which an administrator user can enter manual controls into a user interface that are guided by the performance of action selection at block 1108. In some embodiments, manager system 110 can be configured to automatically implement in accordance with an action selection at block 1108 without a guided automatic selection using an administrator user interface, such as administrator user interface 500. For example, manager system 110 at block 1109 for providing one or more output in response to the performance of action selection at block 1108 can send one or more patch and one or more set of logging profile configuration data for receipt by services system 160 at block 1603 without any administrator user interaction with administrator user interface 500 for installing of the selected one or more patch and/or activating of the one or more logging profile.

Manager system 110 can in many use case scenarios automatically determines an address location (e.g. URL) to which to transmit a corrective patch for installation for correction of an indicated condition indicated by an error screen. For example, error screens commonly map to applications having software running on computing nodes with locations which can be readily tracked e.g. with use of one or more IT management system 2604. Manager system 110 can automatically send a patch for installation to an automatically determined installation location. The automatic sending can be on a guided automated basis or an unguided automatic basis (without any administrator user interaction with administrator user interface 500) for example.

Manager system 110 can in many use case scenarios automatically determine a location to which to transmit a corrective logging profile activation communication to activate a logging profile. For example, error screens commonly map to applications having software running on computing nodes with locations which can be readily tracked e.g. with use of one or more IT management system 2604. On recognition of an error, manager system 110 can automatically send a REST request to a log management system (e.g. Graylog) or the application itself to enable additional logging for that particular component. A logging profile action that is specified in a decision data structure as described in connection with Table A can be a logging profile to increase a specificity of a logging function. For example, according to a baseline logging function, logging operations for improved memory utilization may not log events mapped to particular user interface controls (e.g. hot buttons). However, according to a debug logging profile, user interface control specific events (e.g. mapping to a particular control button) can be tracked. A logging profile activation decision specified in a decision data structure, e.g. as shown in Table A can include a logging profile activation decision to activate a debug logging profile. A logging profile can be seen as a set of logging rules. For example, in the program code when a user clicks ButtonA with debug logging on, the message “user clicked ButtonA”. Since a user may click ButtonA 1000 times a day avoiding logging such detail may be advantageous for improvement of memory utilization. In such an embodiment, system 100 can selectively provide such a log on the activation of a debug logging profile.

One or more output provided at block 1109 by manager system 110 can further include a communication by manager system 110 for receipt by services support administrator client computer device 170 at block 1703. Such a communication can include, e.g. text based action selection data which provides data on the action decision selection provided at block 1108. Such action selection data can include e.g. text based description of the action decisions returned with use of a decision data structure for display on a support user interface displayed on a display of services support administrator client computer device 170.

In response to received action selection data received at block 1703, support administrator user interface 600 as shown in FIG. 6 can display various content in area 640 of support administrator user interface 600. Such content can include, e.g. at 642 a text based description of the action selections resulting from performance of action selection block 1108. The support administrator user associated to service support administrator client computer device 170, accordingly has information of the action selections resulting from performance of block 1108. In area 644, there can be displayed, e.g. a face-to-face video communication channel to facilitate video communication between the support administrator at the service support administrator client computer device 170 and the enterprise administrator at administrator client computer device 120. Additionally, or alternatively, in area 644 there can be displayed a shared work screen facilitating further communication between administrators regarding the current error screen, displayed on a display of administrator client computer device 120. One or more output provided at block 1109 can include one or more output to activate performance evaluation if any action implemented based on the action selection at block 1108. The monitoring can include scoring of performance of the action based on various selected performance parameters, e.g. system down town, system run time. Such resource performance monitoring data can be obtained from one or more IT management system 2604.

One or more output to initiate a monitoring process for monitoring performance of a selected action selected at block 1108 can include manager system 110 sending a communication to administrator client computer device 120, so that a survey 560 is displayed on administrator user interface 500 as shown in FIG. 5. The displayed survey 560 can include various information input information areas that allow an administrator user using administrator user interface 500 to specify a success rating of the selected action, e.g. on a scale of 0 (not successful) to 10 (most successful). On the generating monitoring results data that specifies a success rating of a selected action, such data can be used to automatically update a decision data structure.

With further reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4, machine learning can be performed at block 1110. Machine learning can include activation of machine learning process 116 as depicted in FIG. 1. Machine learning can include use of data resulting from the described performance monitoring to update data of a decision data structure. Iteratively, over time as additional data is obtained by system 100. FIG. 7 illustrates a predictive model that can be trained by activation of machine learning process 116 for updating actions specified in a decision data structure, such as the decision data structure as set forth in Table A. Depicted in FIG. 7, training data for training of predictive model can include inputting a set of three-tuples into machine learning process 1017. Each three-tuple can take the form of (a_(i), s_(i), t_(i)) where a_(i) is an action instance, s_(i) is a success rating associated to the action instance, and t_(i) is a time associated to the action instance. The training data input into machine learning process 1017 can iterate as new data is made available. For example, where a certain error data (e.g. error screen data and/or context data thereof) is matched to a previously registered error screen and the error classified according to a classification actions can be selected for the classification and subsequent to the actions being implemented, performance of the actions can be monitored for the determining success ratings. On the return by system 100 of each new success rating parameter, manager system 110 can automatically apply updated training data to machine learning process 116 which can responsively update a predictive model for predicting a best performing set of actions for the certain error classification. Machine learning process 116 based on the applied training data can output a prioritized list of actions, e.g. the actions AR1, AR2, . . . . Where AR1 is the highest ranking action, AR2 is the second highest ranking action, and so forth according to a prioritized list of actions.

In one embodiment, machine learning process 116 can apply an algorithm so that the output prioritized list of actions can change based on input training data. In one embodiment the algorithm can provide a ranking of prioritized actions based on an average of success ratings for the various actions, in accordance with a function that uses the timestamp parameter of the training data to filter out aged data older than a threshold age.

Certain embodiments herein may offer various technical computing advantages involving computing advantages to address problems arising in the realm of computer networks. Embodiments herein can perform recognition processing to determine classification of errors associated to error screens indicating an error condition of one or more resource of a services system. One or more decision data structure can be used to return artificial intelligence (AI) decisions based on returned error classifiers. Machine learning processes can be employed, such as machine learning process to automatically update a decision data structure that cognitively maps error classifiers to actions associated to the error classifiers. Embodiments herein feature AI decision making processes for implementation of one or more corrective action in response to recognizing an error having an associated error screen. Corrective actions that can be implemented in response to recognizing an error can include, e.g. action for software patch installation and/or action for logging profile activation. Machine learning processes can be performed for increased accuracy and for reduction of reliance on rule based criteria and thus, reduced computational overhead. For enhancement of computation accuracies, embodiments can feature computational platforms existing only in the realm of computer networks such as artificial intelligence (AI) platforms and machine learning platforms. Embodiments herein can employ data structuring processes, e.g. processing for transforming unstructured data into a form optimized for computerized processing. Embodiments herein for recognizing a error screen can include, e.g. activation of a heuristic process and/or utilization of return data returned by subjecting of an error screen to natural language processing (NLP) processes. Embodiments herein recognize that with administrator users increasingly working remotely with respect to network resources, such administrator users are increasingly using administrator user computer devices that are mobile devices having small screens. Embodiments herein can feature simplified and reduced content, user interface control features, and in various embodiments can avoid processes involving manual input to enhance an administrator's ability to perform administrative activities with respect to a network using an administrator computer device provided by a mobile device having a small screen.

FIGS. 8-10 depict various aspects of computing, including a computer system and cloud computing, in accordance with one or more aspects set forth herein.

It is understood in advance that although this disclosure includes a detailed description on cloud computing, implementation of the teachings recited herein are not limited to a cloud computing environment. Rather, embodiments of the present invention are capable of being implemented in conjunction with any other type of computing environment now known or later developed.

Cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service. This cloud model may include at least five characteristics, at least three service models, and at least four deployment models.

Characteristics are as follows:

On-demand self-service: a cloud consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with the service's provider.

Broad network access: capabilities are available over a network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs).

Resource pooling: the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the consumer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter).

Rapid elasticity: capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.

Measured service: cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service.

Service Models are as follows:

Software as a Service (SaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based e-mail). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.

Platform as a Service (PaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).

Deployment Models are as follows:

Private cloud: the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Community cloud: the cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Public cloud: the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.

Hybrid cloud: the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).

A cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability. At the heart of cloud computing is an infrastructure comprising a network of interconnected nodes.

Referring now to FIG. 8, a schematic of an example of a computing node is shown. Computing node 10 is only one example of a computing node suitable for use as a cloud computing node and is not intended to suggest any limitation as to the scope of use or functionality of embodiments of the invention described herein. Regardless, computing node 10 is capable of being implemented and/or performing any of the functionality set forth hereinabove. Computing node 10 can be implemented as a cloud computing node in a cloud computing environment, or can be implemented as a computing node in a computing environment other than a cloud computing environment.

In computing node 10 there is a computer system 12, which is operational with numerous other general purpose or special purpose computing system environments or configurations. Examples of well-known computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for use with computer system 12 include, but are not limited to, personal computer systems, server computer systems, thin clients, thick clients, hand-held or laptop devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set top boxes, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputer systems, mainframe computer systems, and distributed cloud computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices, and the like.

Computer system 12 may be described in the general context of computer system-executable instructions, such as program processes, being executed by a computer system. Generally, program processes may include routines, programs, objects, components, logic, data structures, and so on that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Computer system 12 may be practiced in distributed cloud computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices that are linked through a communications network. In a distributed cloud computing environment, program processes may be located in both local and remote computer system storage media including memory storage devices.

As shown in FIG. 8, computer system 12 in computing node 10 is shown in the form of a computing device. The components of computer system 12 may include, but are not limited to, one or more processor 16, a system memory 28, and a bus 18 that couples various system components including system memory 28 to processor 16. In one embodiment, computing node 10 is a computing node of a non-cloud computing environment. In one embodiment, computing node 10 is a computing node of a cloud computing environment as set forth herein in connection with FIGS. 9-10.

Bus 18 represents one or more of any of several types of bus structures, including a memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus, an accelerated graphics port, and a processor or local bus using any of a variety of bus architectures.
